Doc House's 5th Annual "New Year's Cachin' Eve" Event Cache

This cache has been archived.

Dr. House: I figure most everyone's logged their find by now, so I'm going to archive this listing to prevent it from showing up in pocket queries and on maps.

Great fun and a great trail that I can't wait to return to.

Geocache Description:

This will be an organized group hunt style event to celebrate my 4th Cacheversary!

Once upon a time, a couple of work friends suggested I try this silly little game called Geocaching. After finishing work at midnight December 31, 2007, I gave it a try. I found my first cache that day, a lampskirt micro (yeah, yeah, I know...) and 6 other caches, and I was completely hooked from there on out.

Every New Year's Eve since that date, I've made it a point to go out and find some caches to commemorate the occasion. At first, I went by myself just to find a few caches. It was OK, but it seemed sorta like buying my own presents and baking my own cake to celebrate my birthday. As time went on and my circle of caching friends grew, I would invite some close friends to come out with me and that resulted in a lot of fun.

So that's what this event will be: A bunch of like-minded folks enjoying the game we all love in (almost!) anything the weather decides to throw at us on New Year's Eve. Meet at the posted co-ords at 11am and we'll go from there. The plan is to find caches on the Elgin Trail. I'll attach a bookmark list of the caches I'm looking at finding so you know ahead of time what you're getting yourself in to.

Happy New Year!
